Re: Help w/ earbuds - Shure E5C vs others
munkster,
I have e3cs and love them. bass is low but I don't listen to much bass-y music. I've heard great things about the e4c's. |

All,
Thanks for your replies, I looked more into the shure e4 earphones and it seems perfect for my needs. Thanks again, f |

Re: Help w/ earbuds - Shure E5C vs others
For around that price, I would recommend the Etymotic ER-6 or ER-6i headphones. I used to have a pair of ER-6i's and I loved to use them with the foam tips on planes. I could barely hear the engines; it was great.
They are $150 directly from Etymotic and the ER-6i's are white if you want to match an iPod. |

I wish so badly I could buy a nice pair of earbuds. But I lose them or break them all the time, so I can't. Right now I am using a pair of sennheiser earbuds, which are petty fair quality and might just be the best for the under $25 range.

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah, the reason I said I used to have a pair of ER-6i's is because I lost them about 6 months ago. I hate myself. |

[/ QUOTE ] I have the E3cs as well, and never found a problem with the bass (though I do have the eq turned up a bit on the iPod). Are you sure that you have a good fit in your ear? I get the best results with the foam plugs. |
